My top 5 book to movie adaptions

Book to movie adaptions are always iffy but some are really good and some are terrible. Here are my top 5 favorite book to movie adaptions!

5. Ready Player One by Ernest Kilne
Now, I know what everyone is going to say, "It's nothing like the book!", to which I say...ok yea sure.
It's not but when you go into this knowing they couldn't get the rights to EVERYTHING mentioned in the book so they had to make do, it's fine and the story moves on just the same. I also prefer how Wade/Parzival won the "extra life" in his bet with the curator versus the perfect game of Pac man. All in all, it was highly enjoyable.

4. Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon
Amandala Sternberg is really killing this whole book adaption thing, huh? I personally think Everything, Everything was one of her best. She played Maddy so perfectly that it was like she walked off the page and onto the set. just everything about this was right on with the book including the little things like the astronaut and her book reviews and Nick Robinson's Olly was the perfect boy next door. (Hint: this won't be the last you see of him here)

3. Love, Simon (Simon Vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda) by Becky Albertalli
Told you you'd see Nick Robinson again. This young man just embodied Simon and made you feel everything he felt. Even in this day and age, it is so hard for some young people to come out and this book and film so help. Yes some minor cuts and changes were made to help move it along (Simon;s older sister is cut and his younger sister is made younger, school musical is changed from Oliver! to Caberet, etc.), but, man was this a good movie.

2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
My 3rd favorite Harry Potter book and my 2nd favorite book adaptation. Christopher Columbus really knew what he was doing with this film and I was sad to see him go for Prisoner of Azkaban, but Lord was the casting of Gilderoy Lockhart perfect. Yes, I missed the Death Day Party and more Colin Creevey but hey, beggars can't be choosers.

1. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J.K. Rowling
And surprise, surprise. Harry Potter rules them all. this was the absolutely perfect way to start off the series. this was an almost page for page likeness of the book. Hagrid and the giant motorbike, the glass disappearing at the zoo, King's Cross and Platform 9 3/4, the ceiling of the Great Hall. This movie is my childhood and made me a proud Hufflepuff. I will forever fly my flag in club Christopher Columbus and will always opt to watch this movie whenever I get the time.
